Product Description:

Avel eCare School Health delivers nursing coverage to K-12 school districts for the entire school day to ensure immediate response to student needs. Using high-definition video technology, school faculty and staff can connect with dedicated providers at eHelm – the Sioux Falls hub for Avel.

Once a student requires care, school staff can press a button and connect with an experienced registered nurse within 5 minutes for help with:

  • Caring for unscheduled, urgent health care needs due to injury or illness
  • Developing emergency health plans
  • Medical advice for 504 and Individualized Education Program (IEP) plans
  • Providing back-up care when a school nurse is not available on site

Combined, these services empower school districts with the peace of mind knowing that experienced nurses are on stand-by to provide high quality care to students. This reduces the risk of liability, helps reduce the pressure on school staff, and saves costs and time.

About Avera eCare:
Avera eCARE® is a national leader in virtual health care with a proven 25-year record in visionary thinking. We’re using innovation to find new ways to connect our specialty care providers to health systems — both large and small.
Product Description:

Fabric’s Virtual Care Suite is a telemedicine platform that empowers providers and prioritizes patients. Our white-label virtual care solution increases access for patients and reduces 99% of provider work time. By leveraging asynchronous medical protocols, Fabric enables providers to deliver care in under two minutes, creating a better experience for both patients and providers. The Virtual Care Suite also enables providers to seamlessly transition into synchronous modes of care, including chat, video, and phone, while triaging and routing patients to in-person care when necessary.

Why Asynchronous Virtual Care?

In-person care and synchronous video-based telemedicine are valuable, but these modalities have efficiency limitations and health equity challenges. A concerted strategy shift that leverages asynchronous telemedicine is key. We’ve done the research and proven that asynchronous telemedicine can solve the biggest challenges facing healthcare:

  • Staffing shortages
  • Provider burnout
  • Delayed and avoided care
  • Consumerism
  • Health equity
  • Access to care
  • Patient leakage

90% Adherence to Clinical Guidelines: Fabric leverages patient responses and clinical guidelines to provide efficient, accurate clinical decision support. We have a Clinical Quality Advisory Council made up of 15 healthcare leaders to establish clinical quality best practices for virtual care.

89-Second Provider Work Time: On average, our adaptive patient interviews gather the information a provider needs to make a diagnosis and treatment recommendation in just 89 seconds, compared with 18 minutes for an in-person visit. This gives providers more time to focus their time on patients with more complex needs, while still offering high-quality care for common conditions.

Patients Love the Experience: Patients receive the dual benefits of convenience and efficiency. They can access the system via any web-enabled device and complete their online adaptive interview in a fraction of the time taken by an in-person visit. On average, patients using asynchronous care wait 6:29 minutes for a diagnosis, spend $25 per visit, and rate us at 64 for NPS. 

Drive Patient Acquisition and Revenue: 40% of Fabric’s virtual visits are net new patients for our customers. Those patients are 276% more likely to convert to a health system patient, and the average first-year revenue for each new patient is $2,900. With the lifetime value of a patient expected to exceed a million dollars, a solid digital strategy is a significant competitive advantage – meanwhile, a lack of one poses a threat to organizations.

In-Depth Reporting and Analytics: Our clients capture significant structured data through the online adaptive interview. Using our HIPAA-compliant Fabric Analytics reporting tool, health systems can follow trends related to conditions treated, visit timing, guideline adherence, and triaged patients.

About Fabric Health:

Fabric is a health tech company that powers healthcare providers to move faster, work smarter, and deliver better care through its care enablement system. The system offers three solutions: In-Person Care Suite, Virtual Care Suite, and Engagement Suite.

Product Capabilities

The Fabric Virtual Care Suite is EHR agnostic and supports four virtual care modalities, including asynchronous intelligent adaptive interviews, chat, phone, and video visits. Fabric also offers integrated Spanish translation.

Patients choose between asynchronous intelligent adaptive interviews, chat, phone, and video visits. Depending on the patient's selection and reason for visit, they may share photos with the provider to aid in diagnosis. On average, patients who choose asynchronous care receive a diagnosis and treatment plan in less than seven minutes.

The Fabric care enablement system's asynchronous intelligent adaptive interviews enable providers to diagnose patients in 89 seconds. Zipnosis also offers seamless step-ups to video and in-person care as needed.

Fabric reduces 99% of administrative work using our clinical intelligence and artificial intelligence, enabling providers to treat low acuity patients in 89 seconds—10 times faster than in-person visits.

Fabric supports up-front pricing and sends prescriptions to the patients' preferred pharmacy.

Fabric's product support team is available for patients from 6AM-10PM CST Monday-Friday, and 8AM-8PM CST Saturday, Sunday and Holidays. Fabric's technical support team for admins and providers is available from 8AM-5PM CST Monday-Friday and is oncall after-hours for urgent issues. The Fabric Help Center is accessed via SSO from Zipnosis Admin and Provider portals.

Fabric supports unloading and offloading patient demand based on each organization’s unique goals. Fabric enables organizations to choose how they utilize the nationwide network’s 24/7/365 resources: • Outsource low-acuity visits • Leverage internal capacity across your organization to meet internal and external patient demand • Divert to network providers during high demand or after-hours

Fabric collects comprehensive data on provider utilization, average visit times, most commonly treated conditions, escalations, visit volume, and more.

Avel eCare School Health assists schools by providing safe, cost-effective care for students via telemedicine. Avel eCare’s advanced two-way video technology and specialized equipment connects students and school staff to an experienced registered nurse within 5 minutes.

Avel eCare School Health nurses can:

  • Care for students with unscheduled, urgent health care needs due to injury or illness
  • Design school health programs and provide education to help maintain a safe environment and minimize health-related barriers to students’ ability to learn
  • Develop emergency health plans
  • Guide care for students with chronic or complex health conditions such as asthma, diabetes, life-threatening allergies and seizures
  • Offer medical advice for 504 and Individual Education Program (IEP) plans
  • Provide back-up care when a school nurse isn’t available on-site
  • Refer students to providers and connect families with local resources
  • Support case management and serve as a point of contact for medication refills, side effects, order changes, nursing care to be provided at school, mental health needs, etc.

How it Works

  1. A student experiences an injury, illness or needs assistance with a health condition such as diabetes, asthma, etc.
  2. The designated school staff contacts Avel eCare School Health and requests a two-way video session
  3. An Avel eCare School Health nurse completes a health care assessment of the student through advanced video technology and advises staff member on how to help the student
  4. The staff member may be asked by the Avel eCare School Health nurse to use medical peripherals attached to the mobile cart, such as an otoscope
  5. If needed, the Avel eCare School Health nurse contacts the student’s parents to communicate information about the visit or a need for further follow-up care

Differentiators vs Competitors:

When schools partner with Avel eCare School Health, they experience the benefits that come along with having immediate access to a registered nurse, including:

  • Decreasing their risk of liability when it comes to handling health concerns and delivering medications
  • Adding peace of mind, alleviating stress, and reducing burnout among staff

  • Providing students with evidence-based care from an experienced registered nurse
  • Saving time and money spent traveling if the school shares a nurse with multiple locations
Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Fabric's Virtual Care Suite is powered by Fabric's Clinical Intelligence Engine, Loom. Loom is a clinical expert system and conversational ai that captures patient data across channels and automates workflows for clinical and administrative staff. Using automated clinical symptom gathering, Loom generates clinical SOAP notes, treatment plans, visit summaries and more. When applied across 2,000+ unique diagnoses, Loom automates 99% of administrative burden for staff and makes clinicians 2-10x faster at providing care. Additionally, Loom offers clinical decision support to providers to uphold the highest levels of care quality. 

Additionally, Fabric's team of expert clinicians builds and maintains our clinical expert system and content in coordination with our Clinical Quality Advisory Council, a team of 14 practicing clinical executives from around the country. Council members perform reviews of Fabric's evidence-based clinical protocols. Additionally, the council supports ongoing quality assurance efforts and helps establish clinical quality best practices for virtual care. The council also guides in-depth studies around the safety, effectiveness, and value of virtual care.

Differentiators vs Competitors:

We are asynchronous care experts.

Fabric offers an industry-leading enterprise virtual care solution with four modes of care. Our asynchronous, phone, video, and chat options offer seamless integration between modes within the context of a visit meaning that as communication needs change, your patients and providers never lose connection.

With over 15 years of proven experience in asynchronous care, we are the market leader for online adaptive interviews. While newer entrants offer asynchronous modes of care, our experience and constant improvement to our clinical guidelines offer a higher standard of care at over 90% adherence.

We’ve also instituted a Clinical Quality Advisory Council, a collection of 14 healthcare leaders committed to providing clinical and strategic guidance to the virtual care industry. Council members perform reviews of Fabric's evidence-based clinical protocols. Additionally, the council supports ongoing quality assurance efforts and helps establish clinical quality best practices for virtual care. The council also guides in-depth studies around the safety, effectiveness, and value of virtual care.

We're expanding health equity.
We are on a mission to address healthcare’s biggest challenges. One of those is expanding access for rural, low-income, and non-English-speaking populations. Virtual care is the path to expanding access, but serving these groups requires modalities that work within market limitations. For example, we know that rural populations often struggle with access in terms of physical distance from care facilities as well as limited bandwidth and cell signal. The internet divide significantly affects rural and low-income populations, making them more likely to have metered internet plans or limited broadband access.

Our async-first technology excels in these circumstances because it requires lower bandwidth and can help address patient concerns before connecting them with a provider via another modality. This allows patients to avoid an unnecessarily expensive and time-consuming drive to a clinic or a data-consuming video visit.


Language is another significant barrier to health equity. Many health systems lack the staff to support non-English-speaking patients, causing visits to run longer and increasing the risk of delayed and avoided care. We are excited to announce that the Fabric asynchronous platform is now available in Spanish to support the largest non-English-speaking population in the U.S. Our dynamic content management system:

  • Translates all patient-facing text into Spanish
  • Translates patient inputs back into English for providers
  • Presents care plans and patient education to the patient in Spanish
